Benefits of Rural Electrification
• Rural electrification has many benefits to the rural Populacerural Populace.
• These include; empowerment of rural populationThese include; empowerment of rural populationin education, health, lighting, modern farming,fish farming, employment creation, securityenhancement, improvement in standard of living, among others.

3. RURAL ELECTRIFICATION AUTHORITY
REA was established in 2006 through Energy Act No. 12 of 2006 and operationalised in July 2007y
Mandate: to accelerate rural electrification
Vision 2030
All citizens to have electricity by 2030

REA STRATEGIC PLAN
• Phase I 2008-2012 - Connect all Public Facilities- Connect 1 Million Customers- Increase connectivity fromIncrease connectivity from about 12%- 22%)
- Increase access to 100%Ph II 2013 2022 C t C t (i• Phase II 2013-2022 - Connect Customers (increase
-Connectivity from 22% to 65% )
• Phase III 2022-2030 - Connect Customers (increase - Connectivity from 65% to 100% )
Note: Access means households within 1.2km of M.V/L.V line while connectivity is the actual connection to electricity.

REA implements RE projects thro;
Grid Extension
Off-grid supply Isolated diesel stations Installation of solar PV, Wind and
Biogas systems in public institutions

STRATEGIES OF IMPLEMENTATIONSTRATEGIES OF IMPLEMENTATION
• Masterplan• Stakeholders involvement• Bulk Purchase of MaterialsBulk Purchase of Materials• Use of Labour and Transport Contractors
T k• Turnkey contracts• Competitive tendering
(Average cost per km for MV line US $ 10,000)

STANDARDS / ENGINEERING SPEC USED IN STANDARDS / ENGINEERING SPEC USED IN RURAL ELECTRIFICATION PROJECTS RURAL ELECTRIFICATION PROJECTS RURAL ELECTRIFICATION PROJECTS RURAL ELECTRIFICATION PROJECTS
• A joint technical project committee of REA and KPLC members decides on theand KPLC members decides on the standards and Specs for use in electricity subsector.subsecto
• The committee reviews regularly and the standards/ Specs of the various materials/designs.
• These standards are used both by KPLC and REA to ensure uniformity in the subsectorREA to ensure uniformity in the subsector.

6. REA/KPLC WORKING RELATIONSHIP 6. REA/KPLC WORKING RELATIONSHIP • REA hands over completed projects to KPLC for
operation and maintenance based on the Service Level Agreement (SLA).
Th j t h d d t KPLC i• The projects handed over to KPLC remain property of REA.
• REA does not pay KPLC for O&M of the projects since this is covered through the electricity retail g ytariff.
